Nope, real problems like grown ass adults who can't post anything put snarky comments as opposed to actually discussing an issue.
Questionable choice, but it depends on what she says. I have found the parents of some of the victims of police abuse to be quite profound. I...
Absolutely. As with most things, the cover-up is worse than the act. Especially when, in this case, the act wasn't that big a deal. Not laying...
Ahh, yes that background helps. We were having a semantic debate over something that held deeper meaning for you. You will likely appreciate...
All of those are valid issues to point out. One can't argue whether this is a terrible faux pas for the Trump campaign, or that it indicates a...
All of those are valid issues to point out. Debating the finer points of whether this is plagiarism or not is fairly pointless and meaningless....
I think this is good advice, so I took it. I don't mind debating them...but it also serves no purpose. I had a nice long post written up...

Then the CNN Headline wouldn't be screaming 'Plagiarism' it would be screaming 'Inept Trump Campaign Can't Even Vet a Speech'. That said,...
No, it wasn't word for word...although it was extremely similar. It was part of 2 paragraphs, which took...less than a minute to read? Again, on...
Yep. Which is why I consider myself a conservative, and not a Republican, these days. A double bad on his part. First in using the term...
This ^^^^ is an example of perfectly valid criticism of her speech, and its import on the Trump campaign in general. I don't disagree with this....
Ahhh, because you say so, and without any counter to the points I made. How very ... liberal of you. Yes, indeed, just stop, it's sad. You...
Sure...if you can come up with any evidence that Michelle was the first person to talk about those values (hint: those have been around for...
